2010: The Year OLED TV Makes Contact?

[pixelthis]

How would it be a matter of economics when I was referring to high end applications where performance matters above all? The reason why so many mastering studios and broadcast facilities have not switched out their CRTs is because the flat panel alternatives are still a step down in picture quality.

Its a matter of economics.
They would love to dump their old CRT stuff, but in czase you havent noticed its a
recession going on, and business is tight fisted anyway.
THEY ARE NOT HANGING ONTO THESE OBSOLETE DINOS
out of some misguided "love", and teh "better" PQ is your opinion.
Its the opinion of someone who has watched phosper based video devices his whole life and think he knows how video is supposed to look.
Trust me, pros' arent that misguided

The fact is that you resort to the usual name calling when you don't have anything constructive to add to a discussion. Calling someone a shill is not fact because it's nothing more than your slanted opinion.

No, its a fact.
No one was around when the asteroid wiped out the dinosaurs, but its pretty easy to figure out whats what when the facts are presented.
And the fact is that you worship at the feet of all things panny.
Calling BERNIE madeoff one of the biggest con artists ever is not name calling,
its a fact

BTW, I mention Panny in this thread because their OLED plans are relevant to the original topic. And just in case your reading comprehension has taken a turn for the worse, you notice that the OLED plans for other manufacturers were mentioned as well?

In relation to Panasonic, and in comparison to panasonic.
You never mention anything without bringing up Panny or you bring up Panny
and then mention something else in passing.
If its not propaganda but delusional behaviour then its really pathetic

Again, check the calendar. The date might surprise you. Time moves on, but apparently the info you cite doesn't.

Looks who talking mr CRT worshiper

And for consumers like you who throw out their TVs before the warranty even expires, why is this important to you?

Why is it important to you that its important to me?
I might not keep a car two years but I dont want to have to do a valve job in that time

But, not important enough to keep it for yourself.

Video Q is actually important to me, not just a way to exercise my nurosis by
showing everyone how superiour I am by advocating something "trendy".
I took a three year course in electronics, mostly obsolete info but I did take it, and have read hundreds of hours info on the web, which is why I know you are full of beans when you talk about measuring resolution during movement, etc
My first HDTV had crts and component only.
And then they came out with DVI, then LCD got affordable in a hurry.
Then I saw how great BLU looked on a 1080p screen, had to have it,
and three HDMI inputs solved my obsolete receiver video switching prob,
so the 42" 1080p was a done deal at 900 bucks (700 now)

The performance advantage of plasma has been bourne out in test after test. LED models have merely matched the contrast levels of plasma sets that cost half as much. Claiming that Panny is "planting shills ... all over the net" is nothing more than sour grapes. Heaven forbid if a happy customer has to keep quiet about their purchase because some conspiracy-spouting LCD/Vizio fanboy will accuse them of shilling!

hEAVEN FORBID.
There is "happy" and fanatic.
I dont talk about Vizio all of the time because , while I LOVE IT, ITS STILL A VIDEO MONITOR.
I bought a TV, you act like you married one.

Untruth is something you know quite a bit about, given how often you state it.

You are the unqualifed expert on "untruth"(and quite a few other things)

And in a typical lit family room, the plasma picture will still look better.

your opinion for the last time.
Its not just me, LCD is the clear winner in the market for a simple reason, most prefer it.
You can talk till you're blue in the face but most will never prefer the dim fuzzy pic of a
plasma tv, ever, which is why they are disapearing from the market.
Like turntables they do give snobs a chance to look down their nose at the great unwashed, however.

There never were a lot of plasma manufacturers to begin with. Panasonic wouldn't be making plasma TVs if they didn't also sell millions of them every year.

They wouldn't be selling them at all if they could get out of it.
The fact that the sales figures seem "huge" to you speaks vollumes about what you know ,
about anything.
Three years and plasmas gone, if they last that long






Multiple reviews of the Samsung and Sony LED TVs have noted the color shifts that occur when sitting off-angle. 178 degrees is a spec for where a visible picture occurs, but the picture quality begins to decline well before that and even sooner on the scanning LED-lit TVs.



Not if the TVs themselves cost twice as much. [/QUOTE]
